Voran SA200 wash mill & elevator
SA washmills and elevators are manufactured by internationally renowned Voran, suppliers of fruit processing equipment since 1925. These washing and milling units greatly free up time spent shovelling pomace into the hydraulic bed apple press, and reduce waste - reducing costs and allowing greater throughput. When used with the appropriate belt press, they wash fruit and deliver it milled directly to the belt press, automating the milling and pressing process. The SA200 has the following features:
- Capacity of up to 1000 kg per hour
- Suitable for milling apples and pears (some other fruits and vegetables can be processed - please contact us to discuss)
- Sorting table and water bath
- Fruit elevated by flighted conveyor belt, receiving a spray of water during elevation
- Mounted on wheels for ease of movement
- Stainless steel construction throughout
- Single or 3 phase versions available
Versions available for the Voran Hydraulic Swivel (PS) Bed Presses , Voran Hydraulic Swivel (180PS) Bed Stainless Steel Press, and the Voran EBP 350 / 500 / 580 Belt Presses

Features
- Fruit is fed into a washing bath and is elevated into the mill, receiving a spray of water while being elevated
- The fruit is pulverised by a heavy rotor and pulp is discharged through a perforated screen - for different types of fruit, screens can be changed for versions with different sized perforations to optimise the consistency of the pulp for pressing, which can allow you to get optimum juice yields.
- The supply of apples to the mill is automatically regulated by a pressure sensor either on the pomace hopper of the mill or at the press inlet
